Configuring Active/Passive in One-Armed-Mode Setup
active/passive is simply a function of the traffic groups. You'll need to define your traffic groups (there's a default one of traffic-group-1) make sure all your vip objects exist in that group, and then set the failover order for that group.
For example:
list cm traffic-group traffic-group-1
cm traffic-group traffic-group-1 {
default-device bip1
ha-order {
bip1
bip2
}
unit-id 2
}
modify ltm virtual-address all { traffic-group traffic-group-1 }
Now all the virtuals are in traffic-group-1 and the primary is bip1 and the secondary is bip2.
I prefer to create custom traffic groups rather than utilizing the default (traffic-group-1) there may be cause at some point to separate out things into more traffic groups so you can run active/active if you have load issues down the road (this allows you to horizontally scale, if the need arises).
